Work close to home

I often travel long distances to find jobs in dry stone. I was very fortunate recently to find an opportunity to build a wall close enough to nip home each lunch time. The regular cups of tea, biscuits and pieces of cake from the owners, the entertaining chat with them and their children added greatly to the experience.

To cap that there was a gathering of neighbours at the completion, details of the celebrations in the next entry on 7th December.
